Trusting God and imposing aggressive faith in the midst of storms

We find ourselves in very difficult situations that it seems like there is no way out i mean everything looks hopeless to the point that it causes us to give up on God. You can find yourself in a situation where no one else understands you but only God does therefore God decides to put you in a corner where you have no choice but to look up to him. I can call this going through the fire by yourself because listen to this the truth of the matter is that there are certain things that God is forced to allow you walk through because he is preparing you for something great in order for you to be able to handle the task in other words he is building your character.Some of you find yourselves in a situation where you want God to come through and just take away all the pain but i have realized that God always wants us to recognize him meaning trusting him before he can start turning the situation around. Trusting God is not always easy in fact it gets difficult as he gives you harder tests but it is something we all need to do to have peace. You see there is so much peace and joy that comes in resting in God in the midst of all kinds of different trials. Luke 12:8-9 says “I tell you, whoever publicly acknowledges me before others, the Son of Man will also acknowledge before the angels of God.9 But whoever disowns me before others will be disowned before the angels of God. Acknowledge God in every circumstance you find yourself because the more you acknowledge God, the more favor you obtain from him and this calls for a radical turn around in every aspect of your life. The other important thing is to impose aggressive faith. Imposing aggressive faith is the kind of faith that imposes itself upon Jesus and upon his covenant meaning you must pray standing on his promises concerning your life. It is the kind of faith that will not take no for an answer, it is the kind of faith that takes not the faith that waits but it is also the kind of faith that will bully the devil. Mark 10:47-48 says When he heard it was Jesus of Nazareth , he began to shout ,”Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me!” Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet , but he shouted all the more, “Son of David have mercy on me!” They will tell you to keep quiet, they will tell you it is impossible but he is a God of imposibilities, they will tell you that your life is doomed, they will tell you that you will never have children, they will tell you that you have 24 hours to live, they will reject you and abandon you , they will look down on you, they will conclude nothing good will ever come out of you but God has the final say. Learn to believe God’s report more than people’s report.Above all learn to fight for what belongs to you by going to God in prayer to start possessing what he says belongs to you in the spirit and this is what it means to say we declare and decree because we pray in spirit and not in flesh. You must be aggressive in prayer and this is what i call taking it by fire and by force because some of you want quick prayers but remember that when the devil comes to attack you, he is not quick rather he torments you until you are left with nothing.
